Thanks to VJ members who hadgone through Montreal before us we were told that no matter what time your appt states.... be there by about 7:30am. You'll be one of the first in line.
When getting on the elevator.... go straight to the back, left side as you're facing in. This is because when the elevator stops, you will exit the "back" and turn left to go to the windows.
As far as medicals go.... we were told that when Adam went for his medical to get a duplicate from the doctor. This came in handy since when we had our AOS interview, the officer was very pleased it was there. She said so many times the medical that was previously submitted hasn't caught up wth the rest of the file and she has to RFE lots of people until they get another one done.

Second review after more consul contact:
Let me add that they told us repeatedly to "send in the passport" and we will issue the visa. We called them back to say "Are you sure??" because my fi only had 5 months and 3 weeks left on his current passport (one wek short of the 6 month minimum required)
Their response "Don't send us the passport"
Had to get a renewed one. Of course this is our mistake, not theirs for telling us to send it in repeatedly.
Final rant - ORDERED A SECURITY CHECK THAT WAS FOUND TO BE ERRONEOUS ... A 9 MONTH CHECK AT THAT ... SOME SERVICE

I am copy and pasting this from the old review section because for some reason the only negative review (MINE) was not copied over:
I guess I will be first to skew the data. Most Officers I have spoken to have been polite, and one in particular has been a downright nasty crab
Bad Stuff:
1. Told me AR was completed in Dec 2004
2. 221(g) paper stated come in 8-11:30 ANY day of the week, website conflicted and stated NO on Wednesdays
3. Assured us consulate would be open on Jan 4th (website has been wrong before and the rep assured us several times they would open on Tuesday)
4. Advised us cable update received regarding our AR was last transmitted in April 2005
5. Advised us all requests for status must come from the DOS, um...that makes no sense....the CO orders the checks, why would the DOS request status on a check they they must perform?
6. Advised us NO cable updat... read complete review

My fiancée went through the Vancouver consulate for her K1 Visa, and I accompanied her to the interview. I have no complaints, and everyone I encountered was profession and courteous. We had emailed them on a number of occasions and they always replied. Once they didn't reply for 3 days, but on another occasion I even have had replies to my emails almost instantly. The CO who take our interview was very nice, and friendly. We came at 10, got our interview around 12 and they told us to come back for the visa at 2pm.
They are very thorough on security and will not allow you to take even a standard laptop size bag, so better to have a plastic box or bag if you have lots of paperwork. And no cell phones, electronics, food, drink, etc.
The restroom is on the 2nd floor so if you have to go while waiting you will have to come back from the main entrance and go through security again. Take your letter and an Id with you just to be safe.
